Consider core factors regarding how your audience will get involved and what you’re asking them to contribute including:
• Identity – by contributing, what will this say about your audience? Is it positive, negative?• Connections – how are you building connections between yourself, your consultants and
your clients with this site?• Daily engagement – what reason are you giving your audience to come back regularly?• Reengagement – if not daily, why would your audience reengage?
Consider the behaviours of your audience including:
• Barriers – have you removed all barriers to contributing?• Commitment – have you scaled the level of commitment required?• Value – are you giving back something of equal value to the intended response?• Interest – can the audience find something targeted specifically to their interests?
Consider your audience’s motivators including:
• Ego – can you leverage your audience’s motivation for status?• Feedback – how will the audience receive feedback to their response?• Influence – how will the contributions of others stimulate further response?
